The primary focus of the RTC's is to provide athletes from ages 12 - 17 with the opportunity to: Work and train together to improve their basketball skills; be identified for participation in the Manitoba Provincial Team Program; and Identify and train local area coaches to become better basketball coaches. RTC's operate between the months of October and April of each year. 36 hours (6 at tryouts and 30 with training sessions) of training and development are received by each athlete who participates.
Athletes are expected to attend the set tryouts in October, complete the RTC Tryout Form and pay the $20.00 tryout fee. Athletes who make one of the 15 spots in the RTC program will be required to pay a $300.00 registration fee due at the start of the program.
